1. Another Tribe
I've forgotten how to smile
A common relapse, an ocean of change within
I didn't know I was going to be the prey
Until it was already much too late
They always say they're against the grain
Come on, they all look the same
They just joined another tribe
To help them build up some old fight
Nothing new to see here, oh, oh, oh
Here we go, go again
Following all the trends
It's become an obsession
Yet it's time to accept it, yeah
Here we go, go again
Following all the trends
It's become an obsession
Yet it's time to accept it, yeah
It's raining again
Creating puddles of eternity
It's where my passion ends
And the insecurity begins
All of this combined
Contaminating me
Maybe someday we will see
Maybe someday we will see
They only say they're against the grain
Come on, they all look the same
They just joined another tribe
To help them build up some old fight
Nothing new to see here, oh, oh, oh
Here we go, go again
Following all the trends
It's become an obsession
Yet it's time to accept it, yeah
Here we go, go again
Following all the trends
It's become an obsession
Yet it's time to accept it, yeah
Where is, where is your deceit?
Give us something real
Wipe up your smile
No more deception, is this real?
Here we go, go again
Following all the trends
It's become an obsession
Yet it's time to accept it, yeah
Here we go, go again
Following all the trends
It's become an obsession
Yet it's time to accept it, yeah
2. Upon Returning
Well, I can understand to a certain extent
The camaraderie and mass appeal
But the feelings you hold, you've got 'em under control
Make me realize how much you have grown
I can understand what you meant
Very few could even deal
With a task so bold, the bravery you've shown
Makes me realize you're on your own
That you're on your own
But I can lie, I can lie if it makes you feel better
I can lie, I can lie if it gives you pleasure
You'll be fine, you'll be fine if we do it together
But I can lie, I can lie if it makes you feel better
Please know I'll be here when you return
Well, I can understand to a certain extent
What you're going through and how you feel
But the stories you've told and the pictures you've shown
Make me realize you're on your own
That you're on your own
Well, I can lie, I can lie if it makes you feel better
I can lie, I can lie if it gives you pleasure
You'll be fine, you'll be fine if we do it together
But I can lie, I can lie if it makes you feel better
Please know I'll be here when you return
Please know I'll be here when you return
Upon returning nothing makes sense
It's more foreign than the place you just left
Everyone's living, everyone's working, everything's so deceiving
Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes, sometimes
Well, I can lie, I can lie if it makes you feel better
I can lie, I can lie if it gives you pleasure
(Give me pleasure, give me pleasure)
You'll be fine, you'll be fine if we do it together
But I can lie, I can lie if it makes you feel better
Please know I'll be here when you return
Please know I'll be here when you return
Please know I'll be here when you return
Please know I'll be here when you return
When you return
3. The Tent
We need some light, find the lantern
Unzip the tent, we can use the moon
I'm going out into the weeds
To gather everything we need
So stay, stay until I'm done
Until I'm done searching for a clue
Even the faintest glint of light
Can guide me right back to you
You had no choice but to run and to go
(I'll get you)
Anything that you need, anything at all
Oh, I'm down for you and I'll be coming home
Anything that you need, anything at all
Oh, I'm down for you and I'll be coming home
Anything that you need, anything at all
Oh, I'm down for you and I'll be coming home
Anything that you need, anything at all
Oh, I'm down for you and I'll be coming home
Through the dark, through the dark
I've gotta get back to you
You're the lighthouse on the shore
The beacon is my guide
The trail of crumbs, I'm fueled by your light
By your light
You had no choice but to run and to go
(I'll get you)
Anything that you need, anything at all
Oh, I'm down for you and I'll be coming home
Anything that you need, anything at all
Oh, I'm down for you and I'll be coming home
Anything that you need, anything at all
Oh, I'm down for you and I'll be coming home
Anything that you need, anything at all
Oh, I'm down for you and I'll be coming home
Through the dark, through the dark
I've gotta get back to you
The distance we maintain is a stable foundation
The trail of crumbs is my motivation, motivation
We have no choice but to run and to go
(I'll get you)
Anything that you need, anything at all
Oh, I'm down for you and I'll be coming home
Anything that you need, anything at all
Oh, I'm down for you and I'll be coming home
Anything that you need, anything at all
Oh, I'm down for you and I'll be coming home
Anything that you need, anything at all
Oh, I'm down for you and I'll be coming home
4. Somebody Is Laughing
Some are skeptics and some believe
Some refuse to say
Well, if they've seen it they'll believe it
They have nothing to fear, to fear
Searching for a meaning greater than us
Something shiny and grand
While there's plenty right here in front of us
Right here
Somebody somewhere is laughing
Somebody somewhere knows
Somebody somewhere is laughing
Laughing 'cause they know
So many people looking for answers
So many people blindly convinced
So many people looking for answers
So many people forget to exist
We're on our own
We're on our own
Call it heaven or the afterlife
Or a fire-filled hell
It's just this, just here, just now
That's all, that's all, that's all
Somebody somewhere is laughing
Somebody somewhere knows
Somebody somewhere is laughing
Laughing 'cause they know
So many people looking for answers
So many people blindly convinced
So many people looking for answers
So many people forget to exist
We're on our own
We're on our own
We're on our own
So many people looking for answers
So many people blindly convinced
So many people longing for answers
5. Down Without A Fight
They laid down
And watched it all crumble around them
They laid down
And watched their city burn
They decided to give into the yearning
To succumb to their ways
They truly believed they couldn't get away
They couldn't get away
Regardless if it was wrong even if it was right
They went down without a fight, down without a fight
Regardless if it was wrong even if it was right
They went down without a fight, down without a fight
Believing positivity breeds positive happenings
Now it's known
(Now it's known)
Everyone should have been brave
Now it's known
(Now it's known)
If they'd stuck around their lives would have been saved
They just turned and walked away
No one ever thought they would
Now there's only soot and decay
Where their city once laid
Regardless if it was wrong even if it was right
They went down without a fight, down without a fight
Regardless if it was wrong even if it was right
They went down without a fight, down without a fight
Believing positivity breeds positive happenings
They just turned and walked away
They're never coming back, never coming back
Regardless if it was wrong even if it was right
(Never coming back)
They went down without a fight, down without a fight
(Never coming back)
Regardless if it was wrong even if it was right
(Never coming back)
They went down without a fight, down without a fight
Believing positivity breeds positive happenings
6. The Ornament
Well, I've been aching for someone I barely met,
And I've been begging for something I'll never get,
And I've been tracing the footsteps of fallen men,
Hoping to fill this void within.
But I'm here all alone again,
Here all alone again,
Here all alone again,
Hoping to fill this void within.
Well, I've been chasing the impossible,
And I've been floating around this world,
Wondering why I'm still in orbit,
Choking on the fumes up here,
Choking on the fumes again.
But I'm here all alone again,
Here all alone again,
Here all alone again,
Hoping to fill this void within.
Well, I've been aching for someone I barely met,
And I've been begging for something I'll never get.
7. The Thought Of Losing You
Today, today is a new day
Put the pain away today
Tomorrow, tomorrow's a new way
Your scars will fade someday, someday
The thought of losing you is not an option
The thought of losing you never was
The thought of losing you is not an option
It's not an option
After all this pain the pain's no more
After all this pain the pain endured
After all this pain I'll be sure that the future is bright
You can follow me
Listen up, listen up
You've come a long way
Listen up to the sound, the sound
But now, now there's a new way
For you to forget and rebound
It's now, now, now
Get up, get on your feet
It's now, now, now
You know it worries me when you go
The thought of losing you is not an option
The thought of losing you never was
The thought of losing you is not an option
It's not an option
After all this pain the pain's no more
After all this pain the pain endured
After all this pain I'll be sure that the future is bright
You can follow me
Like a moth within a windstorm
A drowning bee in a pool
Like a fly beneath the swatter
A spider crushed with a shoe
The thought of losing you is not an option
The thought of losing you never was
The thought of losing you is not an option
It's not an option
After all this pain the pain's no more
After all this pain the pain endured
After all this pain I'll be sure that the future is bright
You can follow me
After all this pain the pain's no more
After all this pain the pain endured
After all this pain I'll be sure that the future is bright
You can follow me
8. Kalathat
He lived the life, never offended, he played by the rules
Struck the right chords, he never was out of tune
Sacrificed every second for his kids and wife
Thought to himself, "If I only had more time"
He said, "It's a problem that I'll solve
Well, it's a problem to resolve someday"
Commuted daily to his high-tech job
Waited in line patiently with the rest of the mob
Now a taste of success can forever jade
When the pink slip arrived he'd finally lost his way
He said, "It's a problem that I'll solve
Well, it's a problem to resolve someday"
He abandoned his family, he's by himself
There's nothing left now, no substance, no wealth
His whole life was work and business
He could hardly see
The story of a jaded man
Who'll never know what could have been
It's all too common these days
It's all too common these days
It's all too common these days
Well, it's a problem that he'll solve
Well, it's a problem he resolved
9. Sun Goes Down
We know you really wanna join us
We know you really want a part of this
Every little thing, every little thing around us
Every single moment chips away at our past
Everywhere we look, everywhere is an option
Everybody needs some sense of release
The way you look at me
It's hiding in the breeze
You can disagree
But it's all that you wanted
We feel more alive when the sun goes down
There's no time to dream, oh no
We feel more alive when the sun goes down
We're taking it gradually, oh no
Every contradiction, every lasting remark
Every agreement, every little spark
Every single action, every taste of suspense
Everybody climbs over when you put up your fence
The way you look at me
It's hiding in the breeze
You can disagree
But it's all that you wanted
We feel more alive when the sun goes down
There's no time to dream, oh no
We feel more alive when the sun goes down
We're taking it gradually, oh no
Every little thing, every little thing around us
Every single moment fading into the past
Everywhere we run, everywhere an obstruction
Everybody needs some sense of release
The way you look at me
It's hiding in the breeze
You can disagree
But it's all that you wanted
We feel more alive when the sun goes down
There's no time to dream, oh no
We feel more alive when the sun goes down
We're taking it gradually, oh no
We feel more alive when the sun goes down
There's no time to dream, oh no
We feel more alive when the sun goes down
We're taking it gradually, oh no
10. Where I'll End Up
You say the sky is falling,
but it's the earth rising,
a perception as precious as some gold.
You spend all of your time in front of the tunnel,
at the beginning of the light,
scrambling for someone, the monster called.
Well, I don't want to, but I have to.
Where I'll end up I'm not really sure.
Well, I don't want to, but I have to.
Yes, I have to let you go.
Change is calling,
but your fears keep stalling,
your potential to progress and transform.
You spend all of your time solving a puzzle,
a beginning window in the tide,
a violent storms waiting to unfold.
Well, I don't want to, but I have to,
Where I'll end up I'm not really sure,
Well, I don't want to, but I have to,
Yes, I have to let you go
Roaming like a Stationary Transient,
you'll get over it, you'll get over it.
Pages of happiness still remain,
I know that it hasn't been overturned,
Feeling like we've been through this all before,
you'll get over it, you'll get over it.
I don't know what I'd do without all of this
you'll get over it, you'll get over it.
Well, I don't want to, but I have to,
Where I'll end up I'm not really sure,
Well, I don't want to, but I have to,
Yes, I have to let you go
Yes, I have to let you go
11. Before It Began
He traveled up and down these roads
To venture out and become a man
He started in a familiar place
But ended up in a foreign land
But as the story usually goes
Nothing quite went as planned
He was on an endless road
Feeling like a king
Even after the initial bite
The wound still did sting
It's not an easy thing to do
Even for the toughest man
It was already over before it began
(It was already over before it began)
The same strut was in his walk
The same fire was in his eyes
Before his child was even born
He'd already said his goodbye
He was on an endless road
Feeling like a king
Even after the initial bite
The wound still did sting
It's not an easy thing to do
Even for the toughest man
It was already over before it began
(It was already over before it began, before it began)
